Organised and run in our area by Care and Support West, these networks are part of a national initiative supported by Skills for Care. Our networks have now been running for nine years; via a combination of in-person and virtual Zoom sessions. Download the latest programme flyer here.

The networks are open to Registered (and any other) Managers providing any type of adult social care service.
